Conventionally Yours (True Colors #1)

I started "Conventionally Yours" by Annabeth Albert  about a year ago. But then some other book came out and I ditched CY for that (as one does--its not personal). The sequel to (well next in the series) CY came out recently, and made me want to read CY so I could read OoC (more on that one later).

["When two "big name fans" go head-to-head at a convention, love isn't the only thing at stake.

Charming, charismatic, and effortlessly popular, Conrad Stewart seems to have it all…but in reality, he's scrambling to keep his life from tumbling out of control.

Brilliant, guarded, and endlessly driven, Alden Roth may as well be the poster boy for perfection…but even he can't help but feel a little broken inside.

When these mortal enemies are stuck together on a cross-country road trip to the biggest fan convention of their lives, their infamous rivalry takes a backseat as an unexpected connection is forged. Yet each has a reason why they have to win the upcoming Odyssey gaming tournament and neither is willing to let emotion get in the way—even if it means giving up their one chance at something truly magical."]

There are definite Baz/Draco and Simon/Harry vibes, which I fucking love, obviously. And while the book was fucking fantastic and covered so many lovable tropes (enemies-to-lovers, epic fandom, road trip, gay romance, there's only one bed, etc) and just filled with the cavity-inducing fluff I die for, it also covered a bunch of tougher topics (homophobia, homelessness, anxiety, money issues, trust, adult-ing, future-talk, etc)

Either way, you need to read this book.
